The Rise of the Shen Family

v1 Chapter 154: Building the 2nd floor

   After hearing that Chai Laosan had promised to be the guest of the Shen family, Shen Ruiling couldn't help but get a little excited.

   Although it may be said that the methods used are a little ugly, but the family benefits are great, and Shen Ruiling is not limited to these.

   Now the family is developing rapidly, and it needs talents from all sides.

   Cultivating immortals and a hundred arts, the Shen family relied on the glory of the ancestors to cultivate talents in the four arts of alchemy, talisman making, crafting, and formation.

   In many other respects, the family lacks talents, and it is unrealistic for the current family to cultivate them slowly, so there is only one way to attract talents.

   Since that day, Chai Laosan has stayed on the Yangshan fish pond, managing the fish pond while waiting for the arrival of his family.

   In the Qingyunmen Fishing Ground, the steward disciple did not see Chai Laosan for a few days and did not report to Shen Jinghua. He took out the roster and deleted Chai Laosan's name.

   Like this kind of handyman disciple, there are a dozen of them missing every year, either because they offend some people and get killed by vengeance, or they get into the belly of the monster beast.

  In addition, Zongmen dispatched a new batch of handymen to the fishery every year, so the steward disciple would not care at all, just walk through the scene.

   After another period of time, under Shen Jinghua's arrangement, a French boat left the Nanhu Fishing Ground and headed towards Yangshan. It was Chai Laosan's family on this boat.

   In this way, although the Shen family fishery suffered a disaster, the family suffered heavy losses.

   But he also recruited an experienced fish farmer, and Shen Ruiling believed that he would be able to make up for this loss soon.

  ……

   A few months later, the family fish pond has returned to stability, and the newly invested fry have begun to grow.

  The Lingtian and Taoyuan on Yangshan Mountain have already had enough manpower to develop, and the income is gradually increasing.

   At the same time, the rainy season in Linhai County has come again, and dozens of consecutive days of heavy rain caused the originally calm Zhenze Lake to suddenly surge.

   A large amount of rainwater poured into Zhenze Lake, causing the water in Zhenze Lake to rise sharply, and it began to flood around.

   As the lake water soared, the monsters in the water began to make waves, and they began to attack the villages and towns around Zhenze Lake, devouring mortals.

   Yangshan, in the courtyard of Shen Ruiling.

   "Four Elders, how is the situation in Binhu Town?"

"The guard of Binhu Town reported that there are two Tier 2 monsters outside the city, and the rest are Tier 1 monsters, but there are not many. I have sent a clansman to pass!” Shen Huanyan took out a jade slip and handed it to Shen Ruiling. Hands.

   Shen Ruiling opened the jade slip and looked at it, and at the same time asked:

   "Where is Yangshan?"

   "Several depressions at the foot of the mountain have been flooded. There are a total of three second-order monsters, and the problem is not big!"

   Hearing that the disasters in these two places were not particularly serious, Shen Ruiling was relieved to come again.

   It can only be said that Shen Ruiling has an indelible memory after experiencing the flood nine years ago.

   But that kind of flood may not happen once in a hundred years, and now this kind of flood consisting of two or three Tier 2 monsters is normal.

   Although this kind of flood does not pose much of a threat to towns, it does so every year and it greatly hinders mortals' recuperation and the development of villages and towns.

  Every time there is a flood, the family also needs to spend a lot of energy and spiritual stones, which is also a huge expense year after year.

   "It seems that this levee must be repaired!" Shen Ruiling said to herself.

   "Is it too early? We have only come to Yangshan for more than a year, and the preparations are not enough. Will it be too early to use a lot of manpower and material resources now?" Shen Huanyan said with some worry.

   "I understand, we can take it slowly. When the rainy season is over, the Yangshan embankment should be repaired first, so that more spiritual fields can be opened at the foot of the mountain."

   "Okay, I'll go out and have a look first!"

   After speaking, Shen Ruiling sacrificed the Rainbow Sword and flew into the air.

  Because of the heavy rain, Shen Ruiling had to use spiritual power to prop up a spiritual shield and slowly flew at low altitude.

  Shen Ruiling came to the foot of Yangshan and saw that the lake had flooded in from several concave banks, and the turbulent lake water swept in like a running wild horse.

   In that turbulent tide, there were also a few monster beasts mixed in. With this surging tide, these huge monster beasts can also go ashore, and they are climbing up the Chaoyang Mountain with their teeth and claws.

   Seeing Shen Ruiling squeeze, the Rainbow Sword at his feet was red, and the sword light shot out, killing the monster beasts cleanly, leaving a pool of red-stained lake water.

  After solving the monsters outside Yangshan, Shen Ruiling flew towards Binhu Town, looking for the shore of the lake, and at the same time began to observe the terrain along the way.

  ……

   In this way, under the guardianship of the foundation-building monk Shen Ruiling, both Yangshan and Binhu Town passed the rainy season safely.

   Except for a few mortals in Binhu Town who were unfortunately swept away by the tide, there were no casualties.

   One month after the rainy season, the weather began to improve, and Shen Ruiling began planning the construction of the embankment.

  The lake embankment to be constructed this time is almost fifty miles long, and they are all located in low-lying areas not far from the foot of Yangshan Mountain.

  According to Shen Ruiling's plan, it is necessary to use natural mountains as much as possible to block the lake water, so that the lake embankment and the mountains beside the lake are connected together to play a role in resisting floods in the rainy season.

  Yangshan is the mountains surrounding the lake. There are many cliffs on the lakeside, which are natural flood control dams.

   family monks need to do is to block all the low-lying mountain passes with rocks and build dams in some flat areas to effectively resist the lake and monsters.

   This not only shortens manpower and saves money, but also shortens the construction period by more than half.

  ……

  "There are currently 35 ethnic members on the mountain, excluding female family members and a few elderly members, there are 23 male ethnic members.

   I am afraid that these manpower are not enough. These Lingtian and Taoyuan also need manpower! "

   At this time, Shen Ruiling once again felt that the number of family monks was insufficient, and couldn't let go of anything.

  At this time, the family seems to be caught in an endless loop~lightnovelpub.net~Because the monks have insufficient manpower, they cannot help mortals build dams, so that mortals can recuperate and develop their population.

   Because of the insufficient population of mortals, the number of monks who can harbor spiritual roots has decreased, and family monks have become scarce.

   "In this way, let the five members of the tribe form a group, and each group will build the lake bank for a month, and then a group of tribe members will be replaced after a month.

   take turns alternately, so that it will not delay the farming work in the sacred land of each family too much. "Shen Ruiling thought for a while and said.

"we can only do this!"

  ……

   Under the arrangement of Shen Ruiling, a lake bank gradually emerged along the shore of Zhenze Lake.

   Although the construction of the lake embankment is very slow, it can only be built for less than half a mile in a month, but with Yangshan as a base, the tribe has no worries.

  The development of Yangshan Mountain is a century-old plan. By building a little every month, one day a levee of hundreds of miles will appear along the shore of Zhenze Lake!

   On the other side, after Shen Ruiling released the task of building the lake bank, he broke through in retreat.

   Two months later, Shen Ruiling naturally broke through to the realm of building the second floor.

  Counting days, Shen Ruiling has built the foundation for five or six years, and the barriers that were originally built on the second floor may take some days to break through.

But after drinking the enlightenment tea last time, he not only realized the essence of [Remaining Rainbow Strike], but also sublimated his state of mind, so that his understanding of the exercises and Dao was improved. After a lot, the bottleneck will naturally break through.

   Even though Shen Ruiling was only building the second floor of the foundation, she was not at all defeated by the coercion of spiritual power at all by those veteran monks who had been immersed in the foundation for many years in the early stage of foundation construction.

   "It feels pretty good!" Shen Ruiling said lightly, feeling the new realm.
